Tour Details

As Jerusalem is a magnet for people from all four corners of the earth, we will explore the city from its four iconic corners. We will begin our unique experience with the most magnificent SOUTHERN view of Jerusalem, at the House of Abraham rooftop. We will start with the story of Abraham and see the city’s southern suburbs. Next, we will stroll together to the EASTERN side, walking through East Jerusalem to a breath-taking view of the old city from the Mount of Olives. By car we will head to Tel- El Ful at the NORTHERN side and climb to the remains of the former Palace of King Hussein of Jordan. From there, we can understand the geographical importance of Jerusalem being in the heart of the hill country at the edge of the Judean Desert. We will also discuss the complicated status of Jerusalem today. Finally, a drive through the neighborhoods of East Jerusalem brings us to the WESTERN side. There we will visit the tomb of the prophet Samuel, who is highly revered by the three monotheistic religions, Judaism, Christianity and Islam. After enjoying the breath-taking view we will end our tour with a traditional Lunch in a local restaurant nearby.
